Who is Michael Bolton?

I dropped by the library to return an audio book and take out another. Nothing on the shelf appealed to me, so I browsed the CD section and came away with MICHAEL BOLTON: MY SECRET PASSION: THE ARIAS. What gorgeous, passionate singing! Familiar arias from Turandot, Tosca, I Pagliacci, Aida -- but also some I don't know, all sung with enormous expressivity and presence. When I was checking it out, the librarian said he used to be a rock singer (??!!). The quote on the cover is: "I didn't realize that I would become so overwhelmed by the power of this great music." Definitely something to add to my collection.
